Hiyas....well just finished another pair of shoes...size 4 in pink...now theres something different ...these were fabby shoes but very badly different colours on straps was going to bin them as i could really sell them but you know me i just cant chuck anything so had a go...and as the straps were the main issue i found some pink ribbon the right width hey,,were beginning to roll with the idea of pink...... i had a small amount of very pale pink lace just enough to do them and made chiffon roses added charms from primark bracelets i bought ages ago they sorta shouted to each other with the pinks in and perfecto i actually love em hope you do too.....

Morning my sweets...well another day back in Paradise,,oh what fun and layer a trip to the post office to get these shoes i made delivered and to add a personal touch and a thank you i made a cotton draw string with ribbon and lace to store the shoes or a nicer way to transport them to fittings or the venue if travelling i hope she likes my little extra gift.....

speak son off to work hi ho hi ho its off to work i go.........

but just before i go i found this old picci of a wedding dree i made back in the early 80;s modelled by my fifteen old daughter at the time i made the veil ..tiara and flowers too....wish i could find the others as it had a big bow,,,on her bum as was the trend back thenlol!!!

Good morning my sweets......hast the weather been glorious we went for a drive to a small village near us Knowle where a friend i have known for years has set up her thriving business she is one very talented girl so popped into her new shop and tea rooms but she wasn't in...bummer still it was on the off chance to she Gillian here's her link her corsets are amazingGillian http://www.gillianwesley.blogspot.co.uk/have a look at her creations and her new catwalk cafei was very impressed when i went in felt like the old fashioned back in time tea roomswaitresses in black and White

On to me .....another little creation which i actually found harder to make even though its a simple design with no base but chuffed to mint balls as it sold on eBay last night so need to get it packed and ready to go i do hope she likes it when she wears it i used simnay for the bow and added a broach for some detail a piece if widows veiling added a comb underneath ..my wrist is playing up on the colouring front yet its fine when i sew and considering i don't use a machine anymore I'm surprised found using the machine didn't give me the finish i wanted perhaps my machine days are too rusty cant get a straight line lol!!!!! anyway i have been making a few more getting a bit braver ...wonder what i will do when i make my first million .....oh would that be something....my shoes sold too i bought them awhile ago for a couple of quid and because they were plain i altered them with Swiss lace ribbon and broaches they sold for a healthy 29-00p which for me is brilliant...OK i know it may take time for the first million hehehe butim not bothered about the money....I'm just Happy people like themright off for a coffee....ill besnooping round blogland in a while thanks for calling inhugs sassyxxxxx

Hello me sweeties... i have been planning on making a posy broach bouquet for some time and finally im nearly at the end of my quest hehe.....i wanted different flowers than roses and have a love for peonies..these were the nearest to peonies i found and the name of them has gone puff!!!! straight out my head....so answers on a post card?....i wanted the greens for some silly reason even i cant think off and settled for variegated and block greens in the bridal and block green and a few white variegated in brides maid posy i have trimmed on handle but don't like it much so that will have to change i also added wired pearls which kills my poor fingers all the twisting..but think a small sprinkling off them works....i shall be putting this on my main blog also ..would love some new followers so sassy needs yo open her mouth and shout i know my things i make wont interest lots of peeps and not their cuppa tea...and thanks you all that are following me on this new experience...I'm so grateful all 14 off you are around ..ill pay the fiver i bribed you all to follow me...hahahha only joking lots of sassy hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
